...include KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Long John Silvers (LJS), A&W, Pasta Bravo, Wing Street, and East Dawning. Yum is part of the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) industry primarily competing with McDonald's (MCD), Domino's Pizza (DPZ), and Burger King Holdings (BKC). As a competitor in the QSR industry, Yum must deal with commodity prices, health concerns, and intense competition. Pizza Hut has received significant competition from Domino's Pizza (DPZ) and Papa John's over the last few years and they have been keeping Pizza Hut's sale growth down. Even with the softness in Yum's business, the operating cash flows remain strong totaling about $1.6 billion for the first half of the year. Overseas, Yum has a very strong position and plans to expand its already very successful International division into continental Europe, Russia, and India. The "Live Mas" advertising campaign has been a success. The US division of Taco Bell has been the only bright spot, with comp store growth of 2% in the latest quarter. With expansion into china, Yum should increase in stock value over a longer period of time. Investing into Yum would be a smart and well paying investment. Since I've bought my shares in Yum I noticed an increase in stock prices. If Yum continues to grow we will see them become the highest paying food stock compared to McDonald's (MCD). But its competition also has expanded into china, many tough rivals, such as Domino's (DPZ), Chipotle (CMG), Chick-fil-A and McDonald's...

Do parents owe a duty to their children not to let them eat fast food too often?
